First Contact Part V
It was high noon the sun was now just over Metropolis. Most people were in doors staying away from the sun. Chloe and Clark yet were walking out in the sun talking to each other. They found a local coffee shop, they walked in to sit down and chat.
"Hello, what do you want to drink." The waitress asked.
"Two cups of coffee" Clark answered.
"So Clark we wasted half the day walking around the city. What are we going to do?" Chloe asked.
"Well I was thinking about going back to Smallville to tell my parents about this accident and that you know now." Clark said.
"Well yeah we could do that, but you're forgetting one thing Clark. We need to get back before 7:00 our dinner with Bruce. Please tell me that you did remember." Chloe sounded disappointed.
"Chloe you know I wouldn't forget that, just like I said I'm going to talk to my parents about the accident." Clark was implying accident.
"Oh yeah…. Ok Clark I think we should leave now." Chloe smiled now knowing how there going to get there.
"Yes Chloe." Clark replied.
As Clark and Chloe walked outside and took the bus to the edge of the city. As they got off the bus Clark looked around seeing if there was anyone around. As soon the air was clear and the wind was right Clark grabbed Chloe around the waist picking her up off the ground.
"I'll never get use to this." Chloe just smiled at Clark.
"Well you better; I rather do this than run." Clark laughed as he started floating off the ground and soared above the clouds.

Dick Grayson picked up the phone.
"Dick, I want you to pull up everything on Clark Kent also pull up everything that is related to him." Bruce asked.
"Ok Bruce… But why do you want me to look into Clark Kent?" Dick asked.
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you." Bruce answered knowing that his friend wouldn't understand.
"Try me Bruce." Dick was challenging Bruce.
"Well if you want to know… But you can't tell a soul about him. I was patrolling the city last night when I ran into him. Actually I knew him before because I gave him a ride to metropolis well that doesn't matter. I saw him and his girlfriend walk into an alley with a gang of some sort. As I fought them one of them decided to pull out a gun. I ducked so that the bullet missed but instead it hit Clark in the back. I finished the gang off then I headed back towards Clark to help him. Then I notice that he wasn't damage at all from the bullet. After that he walked up to me… Remember that I'm batman here… and said "We all have our secrets… Bruce". He knew who I was." Bruce explained.
"Well I'll do it, that story is almost unbelievable… maybe I should come out there to check this guy out." Dick asked.
"Sorry Dick, not right now. I'm going to talk to him tonight." Bruce told him.
"Ok, I'll get back to you later on tonight; I'm going out right now." Dick said.
"Thanks." Bruce hung up the phone.

"What in the hell are you doing Nixon." Lex asked as he noticed that he was tied to a chair.
"Lex I thought you knew. You're going to witness Clark and all of his might and how he is going to be defeated. I'm also going to tell him that this was your doing, I'm going to tell him all the things you done behind his back." Nixon replied.
"I told you that I wasn't going to do this any more. I watched him go with Chloe and I thought to myself if it was really worth it." Lex replied.
"Lex, Lex, Lex… you're just like your father coming up with stories to protect yourself." Nixon said.
"I swear to you that this is the truth I rather have him tell me like a friend than actually finding it out behind his back." Lex replied.
"Sorry Lex… I can't believe you… after all you almost erased me from the world." Nixon replied with a sinister laugh. "But I need someone closer than you Lex if I'm going to bring Clark in. Maybe Chloe… Maybe Lana…. Maybe Pete…. Or maybe all of them. You just wait Lex… when he finds this out and I tell him the truth I think he's going to be very upset." Nixon now just in the shadow of the room.

"Clark this is amazing… I still can't believe that you're my boyfriend." Chloe said while she was in the clouds with Clark.
They were now just 5 minutes away from the Kent farm.
"Well Chloe I can't believe that you are still with me." Clark smiled while looking at her.
"Clark Kent now the man of mystery, maybe I'll call you my Superman. After all you are no ordinary man." Chloe giggled.
As they arrived in front of Clark's house, Jonathan Kent just came around the barn and noticed Clark holding Chloe in his arms.
"Clark… I didn't think you be coming by." Jonathan asked.
"I came by to talk to you and mom about something." Clark replied.
"Ok Clark… lets go inside the house." Jonathan knew something was wrong now.
"Clark… Chloe… I didn't think you two were coming… if I knew I would have got something ready." Martha was surprised to see them.
"Ok Clark what is it?" Jonathan asked.
"Don't get mad ok…" Clark already knew that there going to get mad… but it was worth a try. "Chloe found out my secret last night." Clark explained the rest of how it happened.
Martha and Jonathan were shocked to hear how Chloe found out but they were more shocked when they heard who else was there. Clark didn't tell who the Dark Knight was just because they made a pack not to say anything to anyone.
"Mr. and Miss. Kent, Clark's secret is safe with me. I would tell a soul, and in fact this secret has only brought us closer together." Chloe kissed Clark after she said this.
"Well I guess that Chloe is practically part of this family now. I can trust you Chloe for keeping his secret." Jonathan said with greater joy knowing that Clark had someone else to tell about his secret.
"Chloe you think you can stay in here with my mom… I need to talk to my dad about something." Clark asked.
"Sure Clark." Chloe responded.
Clark and Jonathan walked outside while Chloe was inside with Martha.
"Son what is it." Jonathan immediately asked.
"Well lately I've been asking myself something, something important." Clark was trying to explain it as cautiously as possible.
"What Son… I'm here for you, you don't have to worry about anything I'm not going to embarrass you." Jonathan replied.
"Well I'm not sure with myself lately; I've wanted to ask Chloe to marry me. But I don't think it's the right time." Clark let it out.
"Clark… That's great that you're going to ask Chloe to marry you. But I think you need to listen to yourself and not me. You will figure this one out for yourself." Jonathan couldn't say anything more.
Jonathan and Clark both took stacks of hay and filled the truck with it. At the same time Clark asked about asked about how they got married. Chloe was inside talking to Martha about the same thing.
"Miss. Kent, you think that Clark and I would ever get married?" Chloe just let it out.
"Well… I can't see you two ever leaving each other. I think when Clark is ready to ask you he will." Martha was trying to not get Chloe's hopes up.
"Well I waited forever for him to ask me out on a date. I guess I could wait until he asks me." Chloe smiled.
At that moment Clark walked in and heard Chloe saying "I could wait until he asks me" Clark could only wonder what she was talking about.
"Ask you what Chloe?" Clark looked at Chloe as she started blushing.
"Um…. Nothing Clark really." Chloe quickly said. But Clark knew what she was talking about and now he was sure that he was going to ask her.
"Well Chloe… I think we should get going. We need to get back before 6:00 we need to get ready." Clark pointed to his watch.
"Mom…Dad… I'll see you later." Clark kissed them both on the cheek as he and Chloe left the house.
"Well you think he'll ask?" Jonathan asked Martha.
"It's Clark he'll do what's right" Martha responded.
Clark picked up Chloe once more but this time he took the ground route. Clark starting heading towards Metropolis and on this way he was going to cross a railroad track. Clark knew that he was going to pass this track and knew that there was going to be a train coming exactly at the time he was going to get there.
"Clark!!!! You don't see that train." Chloe screamed as she shall the train getting closer to them.
"Chloe don't worry." Clark said calmly.

Inside the train….
"Peter what are you looking at?" A young red headed girl asked.
"M.J. I was just watching the Smallville skyline plus I thought I saw a guy and woman running as fast as this train. But I must be seeing things." Peter replied.
"Peter Parker you have quite the imagination, remember that we are here on business we are here to talk to Lionel and Lex Luthor about there company." M.J. replied.
"Yeah I know it's just…. Well you know… ah…. never mind." Peter sat back in his chair as they headed to the Metropolis train station.

Clark passed the train scaring Chloe, just a minute later they arrived at the hotel. Clark and Chloe went up to the room and started getting ready for they dinner with Bruce.
